GA Moves To Force Students To Come Out To Parents Before Joining LGBT Club
http://www.365gay.com/newscon05/03/031805gaSchools.htm

A proposal aimed at gay clubs would require high school students to get written parental permission before taking part in extracurricular activities.

The rule before the state Board of Education was proposed by schools Superintendent Kathy Cox. It does NOT specifically target clubs for homosexual students. But it was requested by lawmakers who have tried for several years to squelch gay student support groups in Georgia high schools.

If approved, the rule would require any student who wants to take part in any school-related club or after-school activity to get written permission from parents.


Kathy Cox--isn't she a Democrat?

1. Kathy Cox is a Republican. Cathy Cox is a Democrat.

Kathy is the Republican head of the GA Dept. of Education.
Kathy is anti-evolution, anti-science, anti gay and pro-fundie.
In other words, a boil on the butt of GA. (And believe you me, GA has become an embarrassment to the USA since the Repub/fundies completed their coup de etat here.)

Cathy is the Democratic Secretary of State. We are having some issues over election reform paper ballots with her. She provided us with the first statewide, all Diebold voting system in the USA.

Edit: The Goddess must be very pissed with us here in Georgia to have visited such a vile woman upon our state government. The previous Republican education head (Linda Schrenko, was indicted on ebezellment charges.)

2. I'd like to see a Bill to force one of them to change their name.

Sonny would sign it for a price.

On edit:
Here's an easy way to remember which is which.

Cathy with a C: Cat
Kathy with a K: Klan

Ah. That's better.
